Description
When logged in, the Maps app uses Mapbox layers as configured. But in the share view the standard OpenStreetMap layer is used. If possible, the same layers (including the layer switcher) should be used, no?

Research direction
Start in the Maps app's share view and compare its map-layer setup with the logged-in Maps view, focusing on where the configured Mapbox or OpenStreetMap layers are selected. Check how the layer switcher is exposed in the main view. Done means shared maps use the configured layers and provide the same layer-switching behavior where supported.
